FIRST
LET’S MAKE
THINGS
THAT LAST.
The Emeco 1006 Navy Chair was first commissioned in the
1940s by the U.S. Navy for use on warships – the contract even
specified that it had to be able to withstand torpedo blasts.
Today our chairs are still made in the U.S.A., of 80% recycled
aluminum, and are made by hand, by Emeco craftsmen using
the original 77 step process. The world’s best architects and
designers collaborate with us to design chairs that are built
and guaranteed to last a lifetime.
As we apply what we’ve practiced in the past, we are looking
toward the future. We are on a mission to make a positive impact
on the environment. Our goals are to use waste material in our
products, use as little energy as possible in our manufacturing,
generate a minimum of waste in the process, and build strong,
durable, beautiful chairs that last through generations. We’ve
been on the same mission since 1944 and we will continue to
search for new ways to recover and utilize discarded materials
and make products that last.

A PERFECT MATCH

PARRISH by GRCIC
Konstantin Grcic said, “Emeco is simply the only company I could think of who could bring a nice mix for this
interior concept, specialists in aluminum, delivering another kind of material appearance, environmentally
sound, perfect for both indoor and outdoor and being such a truly American company – it was a perfect match.”
The new Parrish Art Museum opened in November, 2012 in Water Mill on Long Island, and has been acclaimed
for the barnlike building designed by Herzog and de Meuron and the elegantly minimal interiors and furniture
designed by German designer Konstantin Grcic.

THE HEART OF THE
MATTER

The Parrish Collection is a family of chairs and tables with a subtle design and a strong technical core. The
underside â&#x20AC;&#x153;heartâ&#x20AC;? was designed specifically for Parrish to interconnect the elements of the chair to form a
strong, integral anatomy.

“The Parrish lounge and side chair collection offers three frame choices - sandblasted recycled aluminum in
clear finish, or red or black powder coated finish. The side chair is available in four seat options – reclaimed
polypropylene, sustainably harvested local wood from Lancaster, PA, or high quality upholstery in fabric or
leather. The Parrish lounge chair is available in sustainably harvested local wood from Lancaster, PA and
upholstery in fabric or leather. These choices enable different combinations, creating a versatile family. The
complementary tables, available in two heights, and offered in 2 finishes, and two Trespa tabletops, extend
the adaptability of the collection.”

Parrish Collection

The Parrish Collection designed by Grcic specially for the Parrish Art Museum in New York. The modest museum building holds an internal complexity, just like the Parrish Collection, subtle design combined with a heartfelt technical core.
